Up-Armor Your Zippo | Thyrm PyroVault Back In Stock

The Thyrm (@thyrm) PyroVault was announced just about a month ago. It proved immediately and eminently popular, which doesn’t surprise us. Who wouldn’t want to up-armor their Zippo?

The problem with a Zippo, of course, is the evaporation of fuel, the lack of a good way to secure it to your gear — and of course the occasional slick exterior that can make hard to hold onto when you’re backpacking, going on Braless Adventures, or just out Extreme Ironing.

Thyrm addressed those issues by developing the PyroVault.

The goal, as Thyrm CEO Andrew Frazier explained it, was to “…create a shell that retained the ability to use fluids available in remote and austere conditions but adds sealing to keep the elements out and the fluid in.

They also wanted to provide a good exterior grip surface and a clip to attach it to gear.

“The PyroVault fits most Zippo-style inserts including butane torch versions. It’s made of reinforced nylon for toughness and an O-ring provides a waterproof seal. The latch is spring-loaded for one-handed operation. The MOLLE/PALS compatible clip means that your lighter will be right where you need it when you need it.”

A Persian styled blade with a nearly straight spine for thrusting and featuring Emerson’s patented “wave-like feature” it’s akin to having a 38 in your pocket. The Hattin came out as a signature series and quickly became a hit in the cutlery circles.

Why They Kill, the Discoveries of a Maverick Criminologist, written by Richard Rhodes is recommended by Dr. William Aprill. It goes deep into the causative factors of violent behavior, and in a much different way than you might think.
